<i>Polygonum minus</i> (syn. <i>Persicaria minor</i>) is a herbal plant that is well known for producing sesquiterpenes, which contribute to its flavour and fragrance. This study describes the cloning and functional characterisation of <i>Pm</i>STPS1 and <i>Pm</i>STPS2, two sesquiterpene synthase genes that were identified from <i>P. minus</i> transcriptome data mining. The full-length sequences of the <i>Pm</i>STPS1 and <i>Pm</i>STPS2 genes were expressed in the <i>E. coli</i> pQE-2 expression ...[more]
